Accept or Leave or Stay on the Fence
My partner and I use to be on the same side on most things until I wanted to understand why a beloved relative who I thought had gone off the deep end believed so opposite of most everyone in the family and extended family. After 4,000 hours of holding my nose and researching what I KNEW not to be true I began to understand just a little. After 8,000 hours I stopped counting because I had arrived at the other side. Yes, it is true I can see and feel with passion the other side. Can I go back? Would it take another 4,000 hours of undoing? I've decided to be a fence sitter. As soon as I think I know what is the truth of one side and start taking a stance I research the other an and get back on the fence. I've decided we can't know the truth but only where we would place our bet if asked. I left the world of news and opinion becoming involved with Steemit 2 weeks ago and am much happier reading and looking at post that offer the beauty of nature and our world and getting paid for it. Thank you Steemit.
